The facts are Billy Smith was his cousin and was one of the last people to see Elvis. Blood is thicker than water! Billy, Jo, and the rest of the family are a class act! Elvis would be very proud of the Smith family!

[@tomlivesay8407]

Folks, I have immense respect for your memories, and I’m very thankful that you choose to share them with us Elvis fans. It hurts my heart when there is any sort of strife between people in the Elvis fan community. I can say the people I’ve met in this community seem to have a genuine love, respect, and admiration for Elvis. Thank you all again!

[@srbeaut]

And that is exactly why Elvis fans are upset about the need to disrespect him again & again for her own fame.Elvis would have never disrespected Priscilla like that.His fans love him and don’t judge him on his personal life.

[@VENUS728]

Danielle, I love your hair cut 😊 I think it’s so awesome that you help your grandparents share their stories with Elvis ❤ EMF Billy and Jo, Thank you 😊

[@tanyafromjefferson5484]

It’s such a shame that Lisa wasn’t allowed to grow up with this side of her family. I believe her life would have turned out real different. You’re all special, down to earth people and remind me of my own family.

[@sandralybrand9425]

Danielle I hope you are doing well since your surgery. It was so thoughtful of you to make videos ahead of time for us. We would have understood if we had to do without while you recovered. You give so much of yourself and I hope you know how much we appreciate and love you and the family. As far as Elvis running Billy Stanley off, it had to be something pretty serious. But he's turned his life around and respects and loves Elvis,soo... I know Elvis had to get all the Stanley brothers out of alot of scrapes with the law in their teen years and probably got tired of it!

[@warreng3238]

Your Family is the Best !!!

[@justmytwobits]

Hello! You all.. your family and MMK’ fam etc.. should do an interview circuit to straighten out on the mainstream these misconceptions that Priscilla is putting out. The real Elvis fans know but it is a shame the majority of the public will hear what Priscilla says and take it as truth. Billy and Jo, much respect to you all as we, the real fans, know just how important you were to Elvis. I just heard your son’s latest video (P part 2), and I agree with him… Priscilla was threatened/felt threatened by you Billy because of the very close bond you had with Elvis - the closest.

[@brendawhite7419]

Billy is one classy guy!!! Holds no resentments!!! I think Elvis is up their somewhere very proud and also very mad at the way Priscilla has tried to write him and others out of Elvis history.

Thank you for sharing your memories. Question to Jo about Priscilla. Was it Priscilla's choice to dye her hair and wear it in a bouffant style or was it Elvis' preference?

[@efmelvisfansmatter1129]

Both,that was the style back then and we tried our best to do that!

[@jballard1972]

I do not want to be taken wrong. I love Billy and Jo. Just tired of any of the foolishness no matter who it comes from. I think Billy and Jo are treasures as I have commented before. It is crazy on Graceland’s part to not bring them in and honor them. I think fences should be mended and move on I mean there wasn’t anything but words exchanged. You don’t have to get around each other but all the who knows what is crazy to me. GOD bless, again I loved how gracious Billy was when he answered that silly question.

[@Somee989]

I think its a sin what Pricilla did. Lisa lost out big time not knowing her kin.

☆QUESTION☆ Hey guys! As always, another great video. ❤ I was just wondering if Billy & Jo were hanging around while Elvis was recording the "Moody Blue" songs in the den. If so, what was that scene like? ⚡TCB⚡

[@efmelvisfansmatter1129]

Yes we sure were and it was awesome!

[@jeanmoreno2428]

I heard a recent interview with Priscilla she Stated Lisa Marie was in California with her when Elvis died I remember Lisa saying she was at Graceland when Elvis died. Why is Priscilla lying she turned into a horrible person! MJ

[@susanreeves4062]

It is my understanding Lisa was with her father.

[@susanw3066]

Eternal Flame Inscription A group of Elvis' close associates paid for and placed an eternal flame at the head of Elvis' tombstone. The inscription by Janelle McComb is on its base, followed by the names that are inscribed on the sides: TO ELVIS IN MEMORIUM You gave yourself to each of us in some manner. You were wrapped in thoughtfulness and tied with love. May this flame reflect our never ending respect and love for you. May it serve as a constant reminder to each of us of your eternal presence.

You are all so down to earth,Billy you remind me of my dad in looks and the way you talk.He is from North Carolina though and he is 91 .Your still a young guy!lol.Your stories are so interesting. I don't think im going to watch Priscillas movie.I did not like the Elvis movie and her movie is going to make Elvis look like a moody controlling guy .Lisa even asked Sofia Coppola to please not put this movie out.I don't understand Priscilla wanting to look like a victim but wants to be buried by Elvis. It really doesn't make sense to me. Danielle glad your healing after your operation. Keeping you in my prayers.❤

Exactly..it doesn't make sense if you are accusing someone of mistreating you but yet you want to be buried by that person.. Idk.. it's just a contradiction and it just doesn't make any sense??

Hi Smith Family As always I enjoyed the video . Billy & Jo I do feel your lives have been long and blessed becsuse you dont allow people to cause you to hold onto a grudge, Good for you. Thank God Vernon had booted Dee Stanley out , Elvis booted Billy he just forgot Ricky & David, Talk about bitting the hands off that fed you. Which i think he had begin to rethink about a lot of people that had been around. The attack against Priscilla well those 2 ladies knew what we all had to find out eventually and that is how she would lie when the truth would do and just spanked her butt in advance. Tyfs be safe and blessed , Speedy recovery to Danielle.🙏

MEMPHISROCKS1; Great Stories ; I Liked The question About Elvis's Side Burns. JD Sumner Did An Interview About ELVIS Back In The Late Eighties Someone Asked When ELVIS Passed Away The Picture Of ELVIS In The Casket at Graceland If His Side Burns Were Real Or Glued On. I Think He Thought It Was A Rediculous Question, He Didn't Respond To The Question. ELVIS Had FANTASTIC And The COOLEST Side Burns.

Can you share some stories of Minnie Mae.aka.Grqndma? It appears she and Elvis were very close, but I really don't remember hearing any stories in regards to her and Elvis, other than Elvis bringing Lisa's pony inside of Graceland and it left a little gift to be cleaned up. With Minnie Mae living in Germany when Elvis was in the Army, did she ever go to Elvis' California homes or the Circle G.? I'd just like to know more about her and Elvis' relationship and her personality. I would assume, that she and Elvis may have became closer after Gladys passed away? Thanks

[@LuAnnM-54]

Billy, you and Jo were there and around Elvis probably more than anyone else other than the women he was seeing at the time. If they are questioning what you say in reference to what you tell us about Elvis then they need to keep their comments to themselves!!!

I watch that there was never a mention of billy's name or. Anything? He has been very respectful he has kept everyone's name and what happened to them. Out of it for a very long time.

Is Elvis Presley favorite soda Pepsi.... William Richards from dequincy Louisiana

[@candybailes2044]

I have another question that you may or may not answer. Did Elvis ever say.he regreated that he and Anita Wood broke up? She was very pretty, had a lot of talent, and she appeared to be a little spitfire too. Also, did they ever think about recording a song together? I would think they may have thought about it, but thr Colonel probably wouldn't allow them to do so, sadly. They sounded very good together in the home video of them singing, I Can't Help It If I'm Still In Love With You. I wish they or Elvis would have recorded that song, as it's one of my favorites. Thanks in advance.

[@patrichardson7481]

was a very classy thing for Billy to turn the other cheek here with all this mess about you know who ! This guy and his friend to this day still slams and discredits the Smith family every chance they get. Also in case you did not know it Ashley in fact ORIGINALLY pointed out about this bycycle in the smoke shead , but the SG steped in and took credit for it and got to make an appearence with Tom Brown and Angie Marchese (director of Graceland archives) on Gates of Graceland video. One other thing I guess EPE will be doing there OWN tours around the Memphis area on points of intrest of Elvis history durring Elvis birthday week and Tom Brown will be the on bus tour guide . Kind of ironic for the SG ! Much love to you all and thanks for doing what you guys do !
